Blu-Ray Wild Hogs worth the upgrade
Added 10/30/2009
I owned Wild Hogs on DVD and upgraded to Blu-Ray. Well worth the upgrade with outstanding sound and picture. I would give my highest grade for the difference.

Mid-Life Laugh
Added 10/24/2009
This movie is really funny and it's a feel good movie too which is always nice. If you're over 40 and have ever walked into a Harley Davidson dealership wishing for a bike, then this movie is for you. I love the chemestry between the actors and they all did a great job. Lawrence and Macy are especially funny. Great Easy Rider moment at the end. I'm purchasing this movie and adding it to my funny, feel good movie collection. I loved City Slickers and never really thought about a comparison between that movie to Wild Hogs. I enjoyed both movies and that's good enough for me. Wild Hogs makes me laugh enough to want my own copy.

To the button-down collar types who ride the merry-go-round daily: try riding a Harley on a road trip to stir your soul. Even the real deal freedom-loving, hit the road-type hogs and hogettes should get a lot of laughs out of this one. It rates high on my list of all-time favorite fun movies! Individually, these guys are great, and, collectively, they are hilarious. The movie was filmed in New Mexico and adds local flavor and charm to the mix.

Great cast-hysterical!
Added 9/8/2009
Honestly, I wanted to see this for some time and thought it MIGHT be pretty funny. But I didnt think it would be THIS funny. I must admit, William H Macys character was my favorite. He was hysterical! And all the guys going through their mid life crises together, they made for a great cast and some very funny moments. I dont remember actually laughing this much during a movie in a long time. A few times I even had tears in my eyes. As soon as it was over I said I have got to have this movie. (I saw the movie when it played on tv) I definately think this movie is a must have.

Not Bad, Not Bad At All

Midlife. Your life is bland, you're in a rut, and your body's falling apart. What to do? Why not get together with some buds and go on a male-bonding motorcycle trip? Let that testosterone rip, by golly. Be cool (for maybe the first time ever). What's so hilariously coincidental is that three of my close buds (all solidly middle-aged) just took a bike trip to the New Mexico Rockies (I was invited, but politely declined), so when I stumbled across WILD HOGS I had to pull up a chair and watch the madcap shenanigans of John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence, and William H. Macy gone wild. (Yet unlike this cast, my friends didn't have a run-in with the Del Fuegos. Darn.)
The movie is silly, predictable, often lame, and decidedly over-the-top, but come on; it's still funny and entertaining--plus there is an undercurrent of midlife angst that resonates with old cusses like moi. I especially liked the give-and-take between our heroes and the rough and ready Del Fuegos, led by a bristly Ray Liotta (who was born to play a biker gang leader). But the Del Fuego who steals every scene he's in is the versatile Kevin Durand (who was outrageously fantastic in his brief role in Smokin' Aces); Durand's reaction, during the closing credits, when the Del Fuegos' bar was resurrected in a spoof to Home Makeover had me rolling on the floor. So midlife might not be so funny, but trying to spice it up can be, and WILD HOGS proves it.
